Paul Wood, SCS electrical Contracts Manager and SCS electrical engineer Ricky Rooney, both attended training sessions at Schneider Electric HQ, Potters Bar and also at their test centre at Farnham earlier this month. The training primarily covered the next generation offering on UPS (Uninterruptable Power Supply) equipment which is now offered by the Schneider group together with the 'Comms Room Solutions' which included cooling, IT racks and switch gear.
Alan Clague, SCS director said "As we now enter our 10th year as service partner for Schneider electric critical power systems (formally MGE and APC prior to acquisitions) the relationship has matured and the Isle of Man has many critical power Schneider installations as a result, further improving the resilience expected for Island's E-Business sector. With the further training we are now in a position to roll out the Schneider product range to include for a full 'turn-key' data centre delivery, with the one brand providing uniformity, quality and compliance with all levels of data centre specification".
Paul Wood said "The support offered by the design and technical engineers has been useful not only to strengthen our knowledge on the technical aspects of the products, but it also allows SCS to further sell a service delivery to support Schneider on existing and future projects on the Isle of Man. The onsite training on UK sites will empower our engineers with the confidence to deliver a service to the levels of excellence, quality and safety expected throughout the industry"
Schneider Electric's active acquisition strategy has brought more than 100 brands to its portfolio. While some of these brands have disappeared, their products, services and solutions have built the foundations for Schneider Electric's energy management offering. SCS together with the support of the Schneider group are keen to work with IT service providers, building facilities managers and end users to provide the best possible specification and service delivery in this sector on the Isle of Man.
